THE SPECIFICATIONS AND INFORMATION REGARDING THE PRODUCTS IN THIS MANUAL ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE. ALL STATEMENTS, INFORMATION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS IN THIS MANUAL ARE BELIEVED TO BE ACCURATE BUT ARE PRESENTED WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. USERS MUST TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR APPLICATION OF ANY PRODUCTS.

THE SOFTWARE LICENSE AND LIMITED WARRANTY FOR THE ACCOMPANYING PRODUCT ARE SET FORTH IN THE INFORMATION PACKET THAT SHIPPED WITH THE PRODUCT AND ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN BY THIS REFERENCE. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO LOCATE THE SOFTWARE LICENSE OR LIMITED WARRANTY, CONTACT YOUR CISCO REPRESENTATIVE FOR A COPY.

The following information is for FCC compliance of Class B devices: The equipment described in this manual generates and may radiate radio-frequency energy. If it is not installed in accordance with Cisco’s installation instructions, it may cause interference with radio and television reception. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in part 15 of the FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.

Modifying the equipment without Cisco’s written authorization may result in the equipment no longer complying with FCC requirements for Class A or Class B digital devices. In that event, your right to use the equipment may be limited by FCC regulations, and you may be required to correct any interference to radio or television communications at your own expense.

You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:

• Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.

• Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.

• Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.

• Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the equipment and the television or radio are on circuits controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)

Modifications to this product not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc. could void the FCC approval and negate your authority to operate the product.

Table 1-1 Supported Networking Protocols on the Cisco IP Phone

Networking Protocol Purpose Usage Notes

Voice over IP Protocol (VoIP)

VoIP enables you to transfer voice communications over a data network using the Internet Protocol.

Cisco IP Phones connect to the PSTN through a VoIP gateway.

Bootstrap Protocol (BootP)

BootP enables a network device such as the Cisco IP Phone to discover certain startup information, such as its IP address.

If you are using BootP to assign IP addresses to the Cisco IP Phone, this is displayed in the network configuration settings on the phone.

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)

DHCP dynamically allocates and assigns an IP address to network devices.

DHCP enables you to connect the IP phone into the network and become operational without manually assigning an IP address or configuring additional required network parameters.

DHCP is enabled by default. If disabled, you must manually configure the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and an TFTP server on each phone locally.


78-10453-03

Chapter 1 An Overview of the Cisco IP PhoneWhat Networking Protocols Are Used?

Internet Protocol (IP) IP is a messaging protocol that addresses and sends packets across the network.

To communicate using IP, network devices must have an assigned IP address, subnet, and gateway.

IP addresses, subnets, and gateways identifications are automatically assigned if you are using the Cisco IP Phone with Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). If you are not using DHCP, you must manually assign these properties to each phone locally.

Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)

TFTP allows you to transfer files over the network.

On the Cisco IP Phone, TFTP enables you to obtain a configuration file specific to the phone type.

TFTP requires a TFTP server in your network, which can be automatically identified from the DHCP server. If more than one TFTP server is running in your network, you must manually assign a TFTP server to each phone locally.

Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP)

CDP is a device-discovery protocol that runs on all Cisco-manufactured equipment.

Using CDP, a device can advertise its existence to other devices and receive information about other devices in the network.

The Cisco IP Phone uses CDP to communicate information such as auxiliary VLAN ID, per port power management details, and Quality of Service (QoS) configuration information with the Cisco Catalyst switch.

Real-Time Transport (RTP)

RTP is a standard for transporting real-time data, such as interactive voice and video over data networks.

Cisco IP Phones can collect and process RTP traffic from routers, hubs, and switches.

78-10453-03

Chapter 1 An Overview of the Cisco IP PhoneWhat Types of Connections are Available?

In addition to providing documentation, it is important to inform users of available Cisco IP Phone features—including those specific to your company or network—and how to access and customize those features, if appropriate.

Tip For a summary of some of the key information that phone users need their system administrators to provide, see the “System Administrator Checklist” section on page 6-6.

What Types of Connections are Available?The Cisco IP Phone includes ports for connecting to the network, a power source, and a headset.


• Connecting to the Network, page 1-11

• Providing Power to the Cisco IP Phone from Multiple Sources, page 1-12

Connecting to the NetworkThe Cisco IP Phones have two RJ-45 ports labelled “network” and “access.” Each supports 10/100 Mbps half- or full-duplex connections to external devices. You can use either Category 3 or 5 cabling for 10-Mbps connections, but you must use Category 5 for 100 Mbps connections. On both the network port and access port, use full-duplex mode to avoid collisions.

Note The Cisco IP Phone 7910 does not have an access port. If you require an access port on this phone model, use the Cisco IP Phone 7910+SW instead.

Refer to Figure 3-1 and Figure 3-2 to see the connection ports available on the back of the Cisco IP Phone models 7960/7940 and 7910.


78-10453-03


Using the Network Port

Use the network port to connect the phone to the network. You must use a straight-through cable on this port. The phone can also obtain inline power from the Cisco Catalyst switch over this connection. See the “Providing Power to the Cisco IP Phone from Multiple Sources” section on page 1-12 for details.

Using the Access Port

Use the access port to connect a network device, such as a computer, to the phone. You must use a straight-through cable on this port.

Providing Power to the Cisco IP Phone from Multiple SourcesYou can power a Cisco IP Phone from an external power supply, from a switch port, or from a power source between the phone and the switch.

The Cisco IP Phone can be powered by the following sources:

• External power source—optional Cisco AC adapter and power cord for connecting to a standard wall receptacle.

• WS-X6348-RJ45V 10/100 switching module—inline power provider to the Cisco IP Phone when connected to a Catalyst 3500, 4000, or 6000 family 10/100BaseTX switching module.

This module sends power on pins 1 & 2 and 3 & 6, which are also used to transmit Ethernet signals. Before the switch sends power, it tests for the presence of a Cisco IP Phone, avoiding damage to other Ethernet devices.

Note Only the network port supports inline power from the Cisco Catalyst switches.

• WS-PWR-PANEL—power patch panel that allows the Cisco IP Phone to be connected to existing Catalyst 4000, 5000, and 6000 family 10/100BaseTX switching modules.

This module sends power on pins 4, 5, 7, & 8, which are not used for Ethernet signaling. Like the inline power, the power patch panel also attempts to verify that the attached device is a Cisco IP Phone before providing power.


78-10453-03


Power Source Design

The phone and switch automatically determine which power source the phone uses. If the power has to be switched to a different source, the phone user will experience different results based on which power source is being used by the phone.

• If you plug a phone into the optional power supply before plugging it into the network, the phone is powered by the power supply.

• If you then unplug the phone from the power supply, the phone resets. If the switch port is configured for 10/100 Mbps, the switch recognizes the loss of power and brings the phone back up.

• If the switch port is configured for 10 Mbps only, then you must unplug the network connection and replug it into the phone for the switch to recognize the phone’s loss of power.

• If, however, you plugged the network connection into the phone before you plugged in the power cord, the phone receives power through the switch, and unplugging the power cord will not bring down the phone. If the switch reboots, the phone will then be powered by the power cord.

Redundancy Feature

For redundancy, you can use the Cisco AC adapter even if you are using inline power from the Cisco Catalyst switches. The Cisco IP Phone can share the power load being used from the inline power and external power source. If either the inline power or the external power goes down, the phone can switch entirely to the other power source.

To use this redundancy feature:

1. Set the inline power mode to auto on the Cisco Catalyst switch.

2. Connect the unpowered Cisco IP Phone to the network.

3. Connect the external power supply to the phone after the phone powers up.

C H A P T E R 2
Preparing to Install the Cisco IP Phone on Your Network
Cisco IP Phones enable you to communicate using voice over a data network. To do this, the IP Phones depend upon and interact with several other key Cisco IP Telephony components, including Cisco CallManager.

These sections provide you with an important overview of the interaction between Cisco IP Phones and other key components of the Voice over IP (VoIP) network:

• Understanding Interactions with Other Cisco IP Telephony Products, page 2-2

• Understanding the Phone Startup Process, page 2-3

• Understanding the Requirements for Installing and Setting Up the Cisco IP Phone, page 2-6

• Understanding the Requirements for Installing the Expansion Module, page 2-8

• Adding Phones to the Cisco CallManager Database, page 2-10


Chapter 2 Preparing to Install the Cisco IP Phone on Your NetworkUnderstanding Interactions with Other Cisco IP Telephony Products

Understanding Interactions with Other Cisco IP Telephony Products

To function in the IP telephony network, the Cisco IP Phone must be connected to a networking device, such as a Cisco Catalyst switch. You must also register the Cisco IP Phone with a Cisco CallManager system in order to send and receive calls.


• Understanding How the Cisco IP Phone Interacts with Cisco CallManager, page 2-2

• Understanding How the Cisco IP Phone Interacts with the Cisco Catalyst Family of Switches, page 2-2

Understanding How the Cisco IP Phone Interacts with Cisco CallManager

Cisco CallManager is an open and industry-standard call processing system. Cisco CallManager software runs on a Windows 2000 server and sets up and tears down calls between phones, integrating traditional PBX functionality with the corporate IP network. Cisco CallManager manages the components of the IP telephony system—the phones, access gateways, and the resources necessary for such features as call conferencing and route planning.

For information about configuring Cisco CallManager to work with the IP devices described in this chapter, refer to the Cisco CallManager Administration Guide and the Cisco CallManager System Guide.

Understanding How the Cisco IP Phone Interacts with the Cisco Catalyst Family of Switches

Cisco IP Phones have an internal Ethernet switch, enabling them to switch incoming traffic to the phone, the access port, or to the network port.


78-10453-03

Chapter 2 Preparing to Install the Cisco IP Phone on Your NetworkUnderstanding the Phone Startup Process

If a computer is connected to the access port, data packets traveling to and from the computer, and to and from the phone, share the same physical link to the switch and the same port on the switch.

This shared physical link has the following implications for the VLAN configuration on the network:

• The current VLANs might be configured on an IP subnet basis. However, additional IP addresses might not be available to assign the phone to the same subnet as other devices connected to the same port.

• Data traffic present on the VLAN supporting phones might reduce the quality of voice-over-IP traffic.

You can resolve these issues by isolating the voice traffic onto a separate VLAN on each of the ports connected to a phone. The switch port configured for connecting a phone would have separate VLANs configured for carrying:

• Voice traffic to and from the IP phone (auxiliary VLAN)

• Data traffic to and from the PC connected to the switch through the access port of the IP phone (native VLAN)

Isolating the phones on a separate, auxiliary VLAN increases the quality of the voice traffic and allows a large number of phones to be added to an existing network where there are not enough IP addresses.

For more information, refer to the documentation included with the Cisco Catalyst switch.

Note The Cisco IP Phone 7910 does not have an access port. If you require an access port on this phone model, use the Cisco IP Phone 7910+SW instead.

Understanding the Phone Startup ProcessWhen connecting to the VoIP network, the Cisco IP Phone goes through a standard startup process comprised of seven steps. Each of these steps is fully described in the sections that follow:

• Obtaining Power from the Switch, page 2-4

• Loading the Stored Phone Image, page 2-4

• Configuring VLAN, page 2-4


78-10453-03


• Obtaining an IP Address, page 2-5

• Accessing TFTP Server, page 2-5

• Requesting the Configuration File, page 2-5

• Contacting Cisco CallManager, page 2-5

Note Some of these steps are optional, depending on the configuration of your specific network.

Obtaining Power from the SwitchYou can connect the Cisco IP Phone to a Cisco Catalyst switch with one of the modules that provides power to the phone (WS-X6348-RJ45V 10/100 or WS-PWR-PANEL).

If you use this optional configuration, the phone receives phantom power and powers up when you connect the Cisco IP Phone to the switch. The phone then sends Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) notifications to the switch indicating it is ready to receive CDP packets and indicating the power requirement for the phone. The switch allocates power and sends it over the network cable.

Loading the Stored Phone ImageThe Cisco IP Phone has non-volatile Flash memory in which it stores firmware images and user-defined preferences. At startup, the phone runs a bootstrap loader that loads a phone image stored in Flash memory. Using this image, the phone initializes its software and hardware.

Configuring VLANIf the Cisco IP Phone is connected to a Cisco Catalyst switch, the switch next informs the phone of the voice VLAN defined on the switch. The phone needs to know its VLAN membership before it can proceed with the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) request for an IP address.


78-10453-03


Obtaining an IP AddressIf the Cisco IP Phone is using DHCP to obtain an IP address, the phone queries the DHCP server to obtain one.

Accessing TFTP ServerIn addition to assigning an IP address, the DHCP server also directs the Cisco IP Phone to a TFTP Server. If the phone has a statically defined IP address, you must configure the TFTP server locally on the phone; the phone then goes to the TFTP server directly.

Requesting the Configuration FileThe TFTP server has configuration files (.cnf file format) for telephony devices, which define parameters for connecting to Cisco CallManager.

If a phone has an XML-compatible load, it requests a .cnf.xml format configuration file; otherwise, it requests a .cnf file.

If you have enabled auto-registration in Cisco CallManager, the phones access a default configuration file (sepdefault.cnf.xml) from the TFTP server. If you have manually entered the phones into the Cisco CallManager database, the phone accesses a .cnf.xml file corresponding to its device name.

The .cnf.xml file also contains the information telling the phone which image load it should be running. If this image load differs from the one currently loaded on the phone, the phone contacts the TFTP server to request the new image file, which is stored as a .bin file.

Contacting Cisco CallManagerThe configuration file defines how the Cisco IP Phone communicates with Cisco CallManager. After obtaining the file from the TFTP server, the phone next attempts to make a TCP connection to the highest priority Cisco CallManager on the list.


78-10453-03

Chapter 2 Preparing to Install the Cisco IP Phone on Your NetworkUnderstanding the Requirements for Installing and Setting Up the Cisco IP Phone

If the phone was manually added to the database, Cisco CallManager identifies the phone. If the phone was not manually added to the database and auto-registration is enabled in Cisco CallManager, the phone attempts to auto-register itself in the Cisco CallManager database.

Cisco CallManager informs devices using .cnf format configuration files of their load ID. Devices using .xml format configuration files receive the load ID in the configuration file.

Understanding the Requirements for Installing and Setting Up the Cisco IP Phone

To install and configure the Cisco IP Phone, you must configure some network settings, set up Cisco CallManager, and make changes locally on the phone.

Refer to Table 2-1 for an overview of required procedures. For detailed information about these steps, refer to the referenced sources.

Adding Phones to the Cisco CallManager DatabaseBefore installing any Cisco IP phones, you must make decisions about how you want the phones to be added to the Cisco CallManager database. Because Cisco CallManager handles call processing in the network, this is a critical step.

You can add phones to the Cisco CallManager database automatically using auto-registration, manually using the Cisco CallManager Administration application, or in groups with the Bulk Administration Tool (BAT).

Once you add a Cisco IP phone using the Cisco CallManager Administration application, the Phone Configuration Window in the application displays the device name, registration status, and the IP address of the Cisco CallManager to which the device is registered.


• Using Auto-Registration, page 2-11

• Adding Phones Manually, page 2-12

• Using the Bulk Administration Tool, page 2-14


78-10453-03


Tip To get help using the Cisco CallManager application, access context-sensitive help by choosing Help > For this screen from the main menu bar. For complete instructions and conceptual information, refer to the Cisco CallManager Administration Guide and the Cisco CallManager System Guide.

Using Auto-RegistrationUse auto-registration if you want Cisco CallManager to assign directory numbers automatically to new phones as they connect to the IP telephony network. Once a phone has auto-registered, you can move it to a new location and assign it to a different device pool without affecting its directory number.

With auto-registration enabled, Cisco CallManager begins the automatic startup process to obtain a directory number as soon as you connect the Cisco IP Phone to the network. During auto-registration, Cisco CallManager automatically assigns the next available sequential directory number to the phone.

Use auto-registration to quickly get all phones into the Cisco CallManager database. You can then modify any settings, such as the directory numbers, from Cisco CallManager. If you do not use auto-registration, you must manually add phones to the Cisco CallManager database or use the Bulk Administration Tool (BAT).

Use the following procedure as a starting point to enable auto-registration using the Cisco CallManager Administration application.

Procedure

Step 1 Log in to the CallManager Administration application.

Step 2 From the menu bar, choose System > Cisco CallManager.

The Cisco CallManager Configuration window appears.

Step 3 Verify that the “Auto-registration disabled on this Cisco CallManager” setting is not checked. Cisco CallManager disables the auto-registration by default to prevent unauthorized connections to the network.

Step 4 To modify phone settings, choose Device > Phone. Use the Find and List Phones window to enter search criteria for each phone.


78-10453-03


Step 5 Install the phone by following the instructions in Chapter 3, “Installing the Cisco IP Phone.”

For additional information, access context-sensitive help from the application or refer to Cisco CallManager documentation.

Adding Phones ManuallyIf you want to assign specific directory numbers to a specific Cisco IP Phone without using auto-registration, you can manually add each phone to the Cisco CallManager database or use the Bulk Administration Tool (BAT).

If you want to add phones manually, and are not using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) in your network, then you must configure the IP settings and Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server locally on each phone.

Alternatively, if you use DHCP, but want to manually set the TFTP server, then allow the phone to start up, using DHCP, before re-assigning the TFTP server.

Refer to these topics for more information:

• Adding Phones Manually Using DHCP, page 2-12

• Assigning Static IP Addresses, page 2-13

Adding Phones Manually Using DHCP

If you are using DHCP in your network, but you are not using auto-registration, you can manually add a phone to the Cisco CallManager database. If you are using DHCP, you do not need to assign IP addresses or TFTP servers.

Use the following procedure as a starting point to add phones manually using the Cisco CallManager Administration application.

Chapter 5 Configuring and Verifying Network Settings on the Cisco IP PhoneConfiguring IP Settings

Configuring IP SettingsUse these guidelines when manually configuring the IP settings:

• You can use 0.0.0.0 for the subnet mask only if the default gateway is also 0.0.0.0.

• Ensure TFTP server has an IP address.

• Ensure the default gateway IP address is on the same subnet as the host IP address.

Note Procedures involved in configuring IP settings or TFTP options cannot be completed when DHCP is enabled in your network.

• Assigning Default Gateway, page 5-15

• Assigning Subnet Mask, page 5-16

• Assigning Domain Name, page 5-17

• Assigning DNS Servers, page 5-18

Assigning an IP AddressThe IP address is the unique logical address identifying each host computer, or node, on a TCP/IP network. An IP address is a 32-bit number expressed as four decimal numbers from 0 to 255 separated by periods.

Each IP address has two parts: the network ID and the host ID. The network ID identifies all hosts that are on the same physical network. The host ID identifies a specific host on a network.

Chapter 6 Configuring User Access and FeaturesConfiguring Corporate Directories

• speed 1 and speed 2—for speed dialing

• redial—for dialing the most recently dialed number again

If you change these button assignments, you can also update their corresponding labels on the Cisco IP Phone 7910. The Cisco IP Phone 7910 shipped with extra mylar labels on a perforated sheet. After printing the labels, you can easily remove them from this sheet.

These label sheets have different textures—one smooth side and one textured side; the textured side is labeled “front.” This is the side that users contact when pressing the buttons. The type of printing method used determines the side to print on. To avoid ink rubbing off on users’ fingers, choose a printing method that prints on the smooth side of the labels.

Use these specifications to print on the labels:

• Text size—10 point (on a PC-compatible computer) or 12 point (on a Macintosh-compatible computer)

• Text font—Univers 65 bold oblique

• Text color—PMS 413C

• Text position—2.533 mm above the button hole openings

Configuring Corporate DirectoriesCisco IP Phone models 7960 and 7940 can store a directory of employee names and phone numbers. Although you access the directory from the IP Phone, you must configure the directory before users can access it. To use the corporate directory, you must have users entered into a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory configured with Cisco CallManager.

To set up these features, open Cisco CallManager and select User > Global Directory. Refer to the Cisco CallManager Administration Guide, the Cisco CallManager System Guide, or context-sensitive help in the Cisco CallManager Administration application for details.

Chapter 6 Configuring User Access and FeaturesSetting Up User Services

Setting Up User ServicesThe Cisco IP Phone models 7960 and 7940 allow users to access specific information services, such as local movie times, stock quotes, weather reports, and so on. Although users access these services by pressing the Services button to display a services menu on the Cisco IP Phone, you must first configure the services to which users can subscribe.

In summary:

• System administrators configure available services using the Cisco CallManager Administration application.

• Users subscribe to services using the Cisco IP Phone User Options application. This web-based application provides a graphic user interface (GUI) for limited, end-user configuration of IP Phone applications.

Before setting up services, gather the URL addresses for the sites you want to set up and verify that users can access those sites from your corporate IP telephony network.

To set up these features, open the Cisco CallManager Administration application and select Feature > Cisco IP Phone Services. Refer to the Cisco CallManager Administration Guide, the Cisco CallManager System Guide, or context-sensitive help in the Cisco CallManager Administration application for details.

After you configure these services, verify that your users have access to the Cisco CallManager IP Phone Options web-based application, where they can select and subscribe to configured services. Refer to the Cisco CallManager Administration Guide, the Cisco CallManager System Guide, or context-sensitive help in the Cisco CallManager Administration application for details.

Troubleshooting
Refer to the following tables for troubleshooting suggestions:

• Table 7-1 describes restrictions or other known troubleshooting suggestions for the Cisco IP Phone models 7960, 7940 and 7910.

• Table 7-2 describes restrictions or other known troubleshooting suggestions for the Cisco IP Phone 7914 Expansion Module.

Table 7-1 Cisco IP Phone Troubleshooting

Summary Explanation

Message waiting light does not work with non-Cisco voice mail systems

The message waiting light does not light if you are using a non-Cisco voice mail system, and Cisco CallManager is not configured correctly for that voice mail system. In this case, the user must access the voice mail system to determine if he or she has received new messages.

Messages button does not work with non-Cisco voice mail systems

If you are using a Cisco voice mail system, the messages button retrieves the messages. For non-Cisco voice mail systems, you must access the voice mail system to retrieve messages.

Daisy-chaining IP phones Do not connect an IP phone to another IP phone through the access port. Each IP phone should directly connect to a switch port. If you connect IP phones together in a line (daisy-chaining), a problem with one phone can affect all subsequent phones in the line. Also, all phones on the line share bandwidth.

In Cisco CallManager, you can configure the network to use the G.729 protocol (the default is G.711). When using G.729, calls between an IP phone and a digital cellular phone will have poor voice quality. Use G.729 only when absolutely necessary.

Prolonged broadcast storms cause IP phones to re-register

Prolonged broadcast storms (lasting several minutes) on the voice VLAN cause the IP phones to re-register with another Cisco CallManager server.

Moving a network connection from the phone to a workstation

If you are powering your phone through the network connection, you must be careful if you decide to unplug the phone’s network connection and plug the cable into a desktop computer. The computer’s network card cannot receive power through the network connection; if power comes through the connection, the network card can be destroyed. To prevent this, wait 10 seconds or longer after unplugging the cable from the phone. This gives the switch enough time to recognize that there is no longer a phone on the line, and to stop providing power to the cable.

Changing the telephone configuration

To change the telephone configuration, you must press **# and then the Settings button.

Phone resetting The phone resets when it loses contact with the Cisco CallManager software. This lost connection can be due to any network connectivity disruption, including cable breaks, switch outages, and switch reboots.

LCD display issues You might see Beat frequencies (scan lines) in the LCD if you are using certain types of old fluorescent lights in your building. Moving the phone away from the lights, or replacing the lights, should resolve the problem.

Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) delay

When you are on a call that requires keypad input, if you press the keys too quickly, some of them might not be recognized.
